The one service i can't seem to replace is Google+ Photos, formerly known as Google Picasa Web Albums.

I'm yet to find an alternative that has such a good UI and sharing features.

My use case is sharing my family photos with my wider family. All photos are private. i'd like a self hosted option ideally.

Any suggestions?

The management/upload process leaves much to be desired, but we still host on Smugmug for sharing with FoF and kids classmates. More recently due to iOS being prevalent in our extended family net, we use PhotoStream more and more often - most folks have at least one iOS device in their household.

My family almost exclusively uses iMessages for communicating with each other, and we share pictures using iMessage or PhotoStreams.

It's so simple, just works, and new photos can be added and are automatically synced.
